A document has emerged which shows the price the Blues would have to pay to keep the striker at Stamford Bridge
Chelsea would have to pay almost £38 million to sign Radamel Falcao permanently from Monaco, according to Football Leaks.
A document on the controversial website claims his current contract includes an option for the Blues to sign the striker permanently for €50m (£37.8m).
The payment would be split into two equal €25m payments, one due within seven days of the deal being concluded and the second after the move had been confirmed and authorised by Fifa.
Previously one of the most coveted centre-forwards in world football, the Colombian has struggled to find his best form since a cruciate ligament tear in 2014.
A loan spell with Manchester United ended with just four goals in 29 appearances, and Falcao has managed to hit the net just once with the Blues, in 11 outings.
Football Leaks have also recently revealed the full details of Anthony Martial’s transfer from Monaco to Manchester United and Gareth Bale’s move from Tottenham to Real Madrid.
Bale’s agent has criticised the website for the leak, branding it as “disgraceful” and demanding an investigation believing it shows “complete disregard for both clubs and the player”.
Football Leaks, meanwhile, have denied accusations of blackmail after newspaper reports claimed they had come under investigation by Portuguese authorities.
The website hit back branding the allegations as “pure fantasy” and set out in a “desperate attempt to discredit Football Leaks”.
